When using a laptop on a desk:The screen is too low - increasing stress on the back, head, neck and shoulders. The keyboard is too small, and mousing device is central located, which increases the stress on shoulders, forearms and wrists, increasing the likelihood of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.

Correct use of laptop on a desk:Position laptop on a riser, lifting the screen to eye level, the correct ergonomic height. Use an external keyboard and mouse, which relieves the stresses of incorrect posture, as well as gaining access to the extra functionality. Footrests should be used to promote correct posture.
